Two Coats on a Fence
Style: Piano ballad

[Verse 1]
We hung our coats out on the fence
Above the ash where the fire went
The smoke had turned to a thin grey thread
I still felt warm beside you, Fred

[Chorus]
Fred, you're the fire I bank at night
The last low coal that keeps me right
No matter what the day has said
You're still the warmth I come back to, Fred

[Verse 2]
Some loves are loud and some are quiet
Mine's just steady, never a riot
It's just this feeling, plain as bread
Simple as your name, Fred

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need the fire lit high
Just need you standing close, that's why
Every ember waits for you instead

[Chorus]
Fred, you're the fire I bank at night
The last low coal that keeps me right
No matter what the day has said
You're still the warmth I come back to, Fred

[Bridge]
Years could pass or none at all
You're the one I'd always call
Through every season, still ahead
You're the constant thing, Fred

[Chorus]
Fred, you're the fire I bank at night
The last low coal that keeps me right
No matter what the day has said
You're still the warmth I come back to, Fred

[Outro]
The coats still hang above the ash
You're the warmth that outlasts flash
